Marco Hernandez

The New York Times has hired Marco Hernandez from Reuters to be a graphics editor.

He will start in January.

Hernandez most recently worked as a data visualization developer at Reuters in Singapore, where he covered everything from the Kabul evacuation to wildfires to a Chinese mining rescue to the Beirut explosion. He also visualized the massive number of plastic bottles sold and mapped the epic journey of an immense iceberg.

Before Reuters, he was the digital design director at the South China Morning Post in Hong Kong and a senior infographic designer at La Nación in his native Costa Rica.

He received a postgraduate degree in graphic arts from the Science and Arts University of Costa Rica, where he later taught as a professor.
